Netflix's New Amanda Knox Documentary Has Two Trailers. Which One Do You Choose?

In 2007, Meredith Kercher, a British exchange student studying in Italy, was found dead on the floor of her bedroom. Police charged her roommate Amanda Knox and her Italian boyfriend, Raffaele Sollecito, with the murder.

For the next four years, Knox sat in an Italian prison while she battled her conviction and was savaged by tabloids. She was finally freed in 2011, and both she and her boyfriend were eventually acquitted. It's a horrifying scenario to imagine, and one that's as chilling as any true crime story to gain attention in the last few years.

Like any compelling true crime documentary, this is a subject that forces you to balance the two sides of guilt while also examining the legal process and all its outside factors. No system is perfect and, sadly, a guilty verdict is never wholly the truth—the same with "not guilty."

That's why Netflix has released two different trailers for the new Amanda Knox documentary. One is called "Believe Her," the other, "Suspect Her."

"People weren't looking past the headlines to understand what had happened. They had developed these passionate ideas of who these people were, but nobody seemed any closer to figuring out what had really happened despite the global media scrutiny," director Rod Blackhurst told The Hollywood Reporter.

When cases gain such insane media coverage the public discussion is split into two sides. Though, the truth might land somewhere in the middle, you're forced to pick one of those sides. So, which trailer do you choose?

The documentary is released on Netflix on Sept. 30.
